​​It's a robust solution with no issues​. In my view, it is necessary to introduce another way to create reports apart from MS Excel.
There are no tutorials or wizards inside the tool, and I think they would be very useful sometimes. Having said that, I suspect that it is one of the SAP's strategies, because they get a lot of money from SAP training and don't want people learning who to work with their products on their own. There is another thing as well which could be improved. In my view, it is necessary to introduce another way to create reports apart from MS Excel, and it must be a way that can be exploited through mobile devices as well.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The biggest achievement is that now we do not have to use spreadsheets"
"I would say US$80K/year as it has automated the process and saved us from hiring a new analyst."
"The ability to budget on individual levels, i.e. by person for payroll, by vehicle for transportation, etc."
"Easy to use Rich functionality Complete corporate performance management solution Based on modern technology Cloud-ready All of them allow me to manage my business."
"Words can’t express how much our company benefited from using this product."
"The time saved by building variables to drive accounts inside the budgeting system, along with balancing accounts to spread increases or decreases based on different accounts or versions, more than makes up for the pricing of the software."
"Definitely take a look at this product and its offerings as it has a lot of useful features and could be used to simplify processes and day to day activities."
"It has enabled us to cut the budgeting process by 50% as well as making the budgets more acute."
"Up to the implementation of the application, it used to take weeks to the consolidation team to carry out the entire, monthly, financial consolidation, now it takes them just one or two days to perform the entire process."
 

Cons

"Discovery was not in depth enough for our deployment to be successful – we had a lot of problems and had to take short-cuts due to a lack of planning."
"BI analytics Few related Ad Hoc Analyses in one window Sorting and filtering in Data View"
"Areas where you load your CapEx still need a lot of improvements. The Excel add-in is not as good as Hyperions."
"The process speed and integration with sources of transaction detail needs work."
"With the report writing there are some issues."
"The Microsoft multidimensional cubes does have several disadvantages in write back solutions which results in poor performance."
"The user interface could be improved as it is not an intuitive product for every type of user."
"There were problems in a certain version with the speed, but they have fixed this in later versions."
"There are no tutorials or wizards inside the tool, and I think they would be very useful sometimes."
